It's the Little Things #2

Being completely ridiculous even though you're all adults.

Throughout our childhood, my cousins, brother and I were forced enjoyed having an annual portrait made for our grandmother. A torturous process for four hyper kids (as well as our patient Aunt) to endure, we made the most of it and somewhere down the line began utilizing props for the very last but just as important 'crazy picture'. Sadly, we all grew up around the same time (and by grow up I mean got jobs, had weddings, moved, and were suddenly busy.) After skipping several years we reunited for another session and although well above the tolerated age for being silly in cheap photo studio's, we tortured our photographer (and Aunt) one more time. :)


(Notice the brilliant use of falling flower petals. Coincidently, it is not recommended to use your own camera in a photo studio. Go figure...)

  6. Aww, love this! My sister, our four cousins and I used to have portraits taken for our grandmother as well. The tradition stopped a while ago and now there are two grandkids and a great-granddaughter in the family. I think getting us all back together would be quite a calamity.
